tntmo 910 Posted November 9, 2009 I will be at Superstition with the family, probably get there Tuesday or Wednesday and stay until Saturday. We usually camp west of Wheeler road between mile marker 3 and 3.5, all the way at the edge of the dry lake bed. Come on by and say hi if you're out there.

karlaeda 0 Posted November 10, 2009 I wouldn't mind tagging along! Where is this..Superstition, everybody talking about? Gotta get some seat time in the sand first though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bikeslut 1 Posted November 10, 2009 Well, Superstition is actually a very large area near Ocotillo and Plaster City...but extends North a long way, as well as East. You'll want coordinates or goog directions to meet a group out there...my cell works there too 8 east to dunaway road, north, then East on Evan Hewes...Left on Huff, then Left on the second Wheeler road...dirt road that goes on forever...so get good directions if you plan on meeting the guys Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PastaPilot 17 Posted November 10, 2009 I'll be working, unless it rains, then I'll call in sick and take Julie up to Christi's Duffyland racetrack for a day. Christi, did you ever get the PM I sent back to you about the group thingy at said track? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dsfox 0 Posted November 10, 2009 my choices are narrowed to Ocotillo Wells for few days OR perhaps dinner Thursday at friends UP North High desert and then Big Bear Friday/Sat, (never rode the southeast area...how is that Blind????) I've always riden North of the Lake and arrowhead/pinnacles areas. maybe Johnson valley which is close by that SE area...etc.... depends on the weather I'd say...and where the wind takes me...but riding will be part of the 4 day off work weekend for sure... Got to LOVE the holidays..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Christi, did you ever get the PM I sent back to you about the group thingy at said track? Yeah, Didn't I reply? Sorry. I meant to. Track day will be the day of the first rain for sure! Watch those weather reports. I only get excited when it says 80% chance of rain. You guys can come anytime! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blind_in_1_ear 0 Posted November 10, 2009 ... then Big Bear Friday/Sat, (never rode the southeast area...how is that Blind????) I've always riden North of the Lake and arrowhead/pinnacles areas. maybe Johnson valley which is close by that SE area...etc.... all i know is there's a bunch of open space...went truck trailing last year, felt like i let my bike down by not taking it up there...so this year going to remedy that!!even just a cool DS route around the area sounds more fun than most anything the group can throw at me...30 people 1 cabin...ahhhh the holidays. but i hope to do some more research as time comes closer...i am def going to be up there, and trucking the bike in bro-in-law's ride...so we'll see! Blind ..poss throwing the idea of taking the whole week of T-day off...but i think that might be TOO much family time(*or poss pretend to be working...hmmm, Pala day??)

edeslaur 0 Posted November 12, 2009 I'll be camping in some store's parking lot waiting for the sales to start. And to think, I could have been a driver for one of the local team's 24 Hours of Lemon efforts instead (but they moved it away from Thanksgiving after I said no! D'oh!!) http://www.24hoursoflemons.com/events/arsefreeze09/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SlowDown 0 Posted November 16, 2009 My family (wife and 17 yr old) is planning on coming out to Superstition Wed-Sun. We'd be happy to join someone's RV ring and support a Pot Luck on Thursday.

christi20 0 Posted November 24, 2009 Well my plans are constantly changing but so far here it is: Thanksgiving day- Ocotillo Wells on the Honda probably. Up for suggestions. Friday- Some girls are meeting up at Elsinore. No membership for month of November supposedly. Saturday and/or Sunday--?? Mimi? I don't feel like going all the way to Superstitions.

Mac250R 0 Posted November 24, 2009 I'll be at Superstition for the day on Saturday with the family. I'm hoping to meet other dual sport riders for future rides. Let me know if I can stop by anyone's camp to introduce myself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mctrails 38 Posted November 24, 2009 I'm heading out to the Truckhaven/Salton City area on Friday for the weekend to camp and ride with family and friends. Wishing everyone a Happy Thanksgiving! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dsfox 0 Posted November 24, 2009 My plans include: High Desert Dinner on Thursday..... Then hoping to explore Big Bear East. Friday and/or Saturday......Cactus flats, Rattlesnake Canyon, maybe venture down into Johnson Valley OHV..looking at maps, routes now..Hi temp 50, low 15, so don't want to get lost and be out after dark for sure (liner might go on this ride). Blind-...let me know what your riding schedule is if you'd like to try to meet up....,we should be right in your area one of those days..... I prefer the street legal only routes to avoid the crowds/quads/rhinos, but if you are in the OHV with family perhaps we can stop by or meet up..as far as DS goes Looks like you can get to some cool routes from the OHV area North and South ends... Holcomb valley across highway 18 to the Northwest of cactus flats is kind of neat to explore....but street legal only over there.....D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crawdaddy 96 Posted November 24, 2009 I was informed tonight that "we'll" be heading up to Sac-ra-Ghetto for my aunts 100th B-Day party the prior weekend.......then "we'll" be flying home and driving over to Bull Head City so "we" can celebrate Thanksgiving "together" at Kathy's sister's house.....so, no hall pass for me since I skipped out early last year for LA-B-V.........hmmmmm......I'm thinking I might have her drop me off on the way over so I can just ride Mojave Rd. into Bull Head City.......might be a tough sell but worth a try Loading up truck tomorrow morning with the dualsported CRF230F and WR250R.......BullHead City, AZ. for T-Day feast......maybe a bit of exploring in the Bullhead area on Friday and ~30 mile "Kathy Loop" over to Oatman (easy dirt )......then I'll ride up to Sandy Valley on Sat. morning (via Mojave Rd. and a bit of exploring to Primm - then Primm to Sandy via "Terrible Track")....I'll join the LA-B-V crowd in Sandy Valley and ride over to Lost Wages via "Reverse Terrible" through Red Rock Canyon.......riding back down to Bullhead on Sunday morning......hope to get in a bit of exploring on the way back to Bullhead if I have time..... Happy Turkey Day to all..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tntmo 910 Posted November 29, 2009 Just got back from a few days out at Superstition. Conditions were pretty good, got a bit of wind last night and today but it wasn't too oppressive. The crowd seemed a bit less than usual, no complaints from me about that. Got in some good family/friend rides and a few "big boy" rides too. This will be the last chance I have to ride this desert riding season so I thoroughly enjoyed it. Special thanks go out to fakename for the loaner TW200. It did everything as advertised. I re-valved your rear shock for ya. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
